Gail Chiasson, North American Editor

KioskCom in Las Vegas last week offered a mix of exhibitors, some showing new products some offering improvements to or new uses for their existing products, and some simply showing up to remind the attendants that they’re out there and ready to help. As a first time visitor to the show, I would have liked […]

Everyone agrees that good content is important to the success of a DOOH project, but do we really walk the talk?

Last night’s midnight snack cravings drove me into the nearby Metro supermarket to be greeted by a new “concierge” kiosk pictured below. This attractive red and grey fixture, positioned in the front entrance, combined MediaTile screen with an IBM AnyPlace self-service kiosk module. Both screens played a well-branded attract loop advertising store info and sponsored […]

#ScreenMediaExpo – Looping Content Is Dead

Monday, April 19th, 2010

Adrian J Cotterill, Editor-in-Chief

EnQii might have been our first choice global Digital Signage vendor, what three times in a row now but the buggers are damn cheap and even cheekier when it comes to spending money on marketing and exhibiting. News just in that they are ‘sharing’ a stand at #ScreenMediaExpo with BLUEFOX Both companies will be on […]

With the ding, ding ding of Vegas fading into the background (at least for those not from Europe who seem destined by the gods of Valhalla to stay in the city of sin forever) here’s some of my personal highlights and not so high-lights from #CETW (nee #KioskCom). High Fives MGM Mirage and their presentation […]

One by one the Samurai leave their master. News just in that Veit Q. Tran left Wireless Ronin less than 3 weeks ago we believe. Veit Q. Tran was one of the smart guys at Ronin and was introduced just over a year ago (March 2009) as Vice President of Product Development… Prior to joining […]

As mentioned earlier in the day, a nice learning for us at #Kioskcom was having a proper desk in our Blogger Zone… It made a great and easy place to work, and also gave the stand an additional news-like feel. Here we see Gail and Adrian hard at work.
